EXECUTIONS AT PEKIN.
Nineteen Persons, Suffer Death-An
Admiral Pardoned.
[San Francisco Chronicle ]


December 11th at Pekin was execu-
ton day. and there were thirty-one
prisoners, among whom were several
men of rank, who were under sentence
of death by decapitation or strangling.
On the day previous the convicts were
treated to q bountifnl repast of wine
and victuals, according to an ancient
custom with prisoners before their exc
cution. Early the next morning the
condemned were taken out of their
cells and placed between two bodies of
soldiers, and, having been securely
bound and manacled, were placed in
carts and at once conveyed to the exc
cution ground outside of the Hsuan
WI gate, where mat shed had been
erected for the accommodation of the
Judges and other officials concerned in
perintending the execution.
! Alta little after noon the Imperial
order was received consigning three of
the culprits to death by decapitaton
and sixteen of them by strangulation,
and to the remaining twelve, four of
whom were men holding official posi-
tions, His Majesty granted reprieve,
and they were accordingly taken back
w OuCil CCilS' lO was duOuU lOuEOc
in the afternoon when the executions
were ended. 1t is said that man, re-
lated to the Imperial family, by the
name of Tsaisan, who was under sem
tence of death by strangulation and
was to be executed on the same day
with the other prisoners, escaped by
climbing over the wall ON the night
previous to the execution, and although
strict search was made he has not vet
been re-arrested. -. - So "I.1.si
Among the pardoned was Chang
Ch'eng, Admiral of the Chinese fleet at
Foochow at the time of the slaughter
by the French last year. This unfortu-
nate man was immured in dungeon
ever since he was taken to Pekin, and
his life had been given up as lost by all
his friends and relatives. 1t is, how
ever, if rumor is correct, to the efforts
of Viceroy Iii Hnngchiang, who inter-
ceded in his behalf with the Seventh
Prince when His Highness visited
Tientsin, that he owes his life. On
that occasion the Viceroy represented
that, as China has at present urgent
need of men who were qualified in
naval and military warfare, it would
he wise policy on the part of the Gov
ernment to save such men as Chang
Cheng and the Others who were then
awaiting sentence of death at the Capt.
tall
On December 18th three more crimi-
mails were executed, two by decapitation
and one by strangulation.

Critical Period in a mans Lite.


If the period between 20 and 80 is the
critical one in the formation of intel
lectnal and professional habits. the
period below is more Important still for
the fixing Of personal habits, properly
so called, such as vocaliZation and pro-
nonciation, gesture, motion and address.
Hardly ever Is language learned
after 20 spoken without foreign accent;
hardly ever can youth transferred to
the society of his betters unlearn the
nasality and other vices of speech bred
in him by the association of his grow
ing years. Hardly ever, indeed, no
matter how much money there is In his
pocket, can he ever learn TO dress like q
gentleman-born. The merchants offer
their wares as eagerly to him as the
variest ''swell," but he simply
can't buy the right things.
An invisible law, as strong as gravita-
ton, keeps within his orbit, arrayed
this year as he was last; and how his
aristocratic acquaintances cOntrive to
get the things they wear, will be for
him mystery till his dying day.
The great thing. then, in all education
is to make automatic and habitual, as
SaAAy 10 pOSsloic, tlS Ihd.lJ uSCiul az
tions as we can, and to guard against
the growing into ways that are likely
to be disadvantageOus to us, as we
should guard against the plaugue. The
more of the details of our daily life we
can hand over to the infallibIe and eff
fortless custody of automatism, the
more our higher power of mind will
be set free for their own proper work.
There is no more miserable human be-
ing than one in whom nothing is
habitual but indecision, and for whom
the lighting of every cigar, the drinking
of every cup, the time ofrising and 60
ing to bed every day, and the beginning
Of every bit of work, are subjects of ex-
press volitional celebration. Full hall
the time of such man goes to the de-
Gliding, or regretting, of matters which
ought to have been so thoroughly in
grained in him as practically not to ex-
ist for his consciousness at all. If there
be such daily duties not yet ingrained
in any one of my readers, let him begin
this very day to set the matter right.

Curious Origin Of Dakota's Name.

In an article in the March Cosmo-
polftan on "The Home of the Blizzard, y
Joel Benton gives the following curious
explanation of the origin of the name
of Dakota:
The territory of Dakota is, in many
respects, the most interesting grand
division of our country's domain. For
few years it has occupied more atten-
tion than any other. No state or
territory, certainly, has ever risen to
such rapid and surprising importance.
The origin of its name has been the
subject Of some dispute; but the best
Indian authority, q dweller for forty
years among the Sioux Indians, makes
the word an abbreviation of Pa-ha-Sota,
which means "many heads, or plenty y
The affix "Sota" always means "plenty"
in the Sioux language. In the word
Minnesota, it means plenty Of water,
the Appropriateness of which designa-
tion is made manifest when you con-
slider that the state bearing that name
is only tw)-thirds land, the remaining
one-third being water. What the
many heads were that gave to Dokota
its title / do not pretend to say from
actual knowledge; but L suppose they
were the heads of buffaloes. Nothing
could be dearer to the Indian than this
game; and here they abounded. Their
COUNTLESS trails and wallows are still
to be found on every hand, :.
not to speak of the elk, deer and ante
lope," specimens of which have sur
vived the buffalo's practical extinction
in the territory. sB
The name Dakota is still etymologi-
cally apt, although the quadrupedal
game has so diminished, for its many
heads of wheat have made it familiar
and famous in all the markets of the
world. Dakota, however, has in other
ways been sort ofsynonym of multi
tude or vastness. Its acres are still
many, although the whole of Montana
and part of Idaho have been taken
from them. To speak of them in square
miles conveys to most people anything
but definite idea; and perhaps it is
not easy to suggest adequately an idea
Of the territory's size. But, if the
reader has tolerable idea of the size of
New York and of Pennsylvania, he
will still have to add Ohio, Massachu-
sets and Connecticut to them to equal
the area of Dakota as it now stands.
And, even with this comparison, there
will be remainder left over.
